Flavored Tobacco Regulations?

Do you think tobacco companies are deliberately targeting children with a new line of flavored tobacco?

They are targeting young people, and a particular market of adults as well. Let’s be honest: one of the tobacco products shown in this story advertises itself as a ‘blunt wrapper’.

– Of course! They have to keep pace with the latest “drink” trends in the alcohol and liquor industry.

– No. By offering a variety of flavors, tobacco companies are deliberately targeting anyone with a few dollars in their pocket. This might be adults or teens. But this is capitalism. The government either needs to outlaw tobacco completely, or let them thrive, but not both. By the way, vodka comes in a variety of flavors too!
